At least in other countries, the blacks don’t even try to veil their hatred toward other cultures. In current times, they are still practicing slavery, mostly of whites, but want to continue to ONLY address the slavery they committed in the past, and then go so far as to pretend that “whites” were the ones responsible for it, when it was their own that sold them in the first place (and keep in mind, only about 5% ever came to the US, the rest were sold to many other countries, who sure don’t get the flack over it that we do.
In the following article we see more of the same old same old. They just want to pick and choose which parts of an era suit them, and disregard the rest.

“COLUMBIA, S.C. - The Confederate flag that flutters 30 feet above one of this city's busiest streets still draws a mix of head shakes and shrugs from South Carolina residents.
Some are upset the banner was removed from atop the statehouse dome eight years ago. Some say they like it in its current spot beside a memorial to Confederate soldiers. And some echo a recent call by the NAACP for the banner to be removed from state property altogether.
"I used to have to crane my neck to see it," said Hester Ellerbee, a black woman from Cheraw who visits the city three times a month. "Now it's right there in front of you."
I say, if you want to deny southerners the right to remember and be proud of their heritage, and especially that era, then only fair for them to STFU about ALL of it. Deal with the fact the confederacy IS a part of American culture and heritage, or we don’t have to listen to anything more about slavery either. Can’t complain about something that we are all supposed to pretend never happened? And I do believe that the NAACP lost a hell of a lot of those tiny shreds of respect it had left, when it started that harassment of Jena, LA.

But I did get a good laugh out of these greedy fat cats finally showing themselves to be carbon copies of daddy.

“But a lawsuit over how their father's estate is being run has left a rift in one of the world's most famous families. And it may now be up to a judge to get the King children in the same room.”
They, like their father, could only hold up that fake front for so long. Maybe that MLK is being shown to be the liar and thief he truly was is making it so they know the myths will all be undone soon, so no reason to pretend any longer.

I noticed that it is only women who are replying to this tread. Is it because men didn't notice this. Is it because the men who did take notice of this are still happily married?

Because I never married I can only make observations of others.

My sister (the 3rd child) was one, who didn't take no for an answer very easlily. When my parents said no the rest of my siblings would accept the their answer more readily. She was more strong willed and tended to do thing her way, and not listen to advice. Well guess you got married and devorsed twice. Now she is having the same problems with her 3rd child (a daugther).

The other story is:
A few years ago I went to another cattle ranch to looks at bulls, as I needed a new herd bull. They had a daughter that I was interested in and she is a hard worker. I was invited in for the evening meal. Yes the bread was a bit stale. The daughter, in her late 20's or early 30's,sat down and made complaining motions about the bread (much like a child). Well I noticed this, and I got to say my interest in her got turned off real quick. (She wasn't interested in me anyway).

Now a question comes to mind. How are your relationships with your kids going? We are setting up their future relationships with their partners in life. Are you teaching them how live on their own at some point.

Now a question comes to mind. How are your relationships with your kids going? We are setting up their future relationships with their partners in life. Are you teaching them how live on their own at some point.Okay, I think you are fishing, so I will bite! Morning :) I think that the "how did we/them treat our parents relate to present relationships does have weight,but you have to remember that so many things have changed and take into conderation the dynamics of every family, good and bad..IMHO, I beleive it all comes down to choices, we treat others as we choose to and they allow us to as they choose to.
Kids, well my kids ahave been getting some big doses of reality, because I am changing my role in the "family unit"; with the support and encouragment of others, a few of my precious ones, are not sure how to respond to a mom that is holding her own, growing a spine, saying no. As hard as it is, allowing them to manipulate me and emotionally blackmail me is not happening. There behaviour and my reactions are results of environment and dynamics - but all that can change, it is a conscience choice. But breaking the cycle and patterns is part of moving on! How they all react is owned by them, I don't own their behavious and choices.
As a mom, I became embroiled in the caretaker role because of certain issues...and put the role of mom ahead of being a person. All changes are hard, but the end result will be worth it and we will have healthier, respectful relationships because of it. Oh, my daughter Brit is getting married soon, and her and I are good.

really i want to know i was married 22 years and i thought he was faithful but i was wrong. can you have a longterm relationship without a wandering eye?

I am in one now..Me in Canada and him in North Carolina..I will be moving there in a month or so...

Distance is tough...I have met him a few times...he drove 1500 miles to see me a few times....

We Miss each other like crazy..but not letting it affect us..We stay strong and talk everyday...

We wont let anything or anyone stand in our way...

Okay. To get back to the topic of the thread. I believe attraction works on several different, and sometimes unconscious levels. People are always talking about chemistry when they actually meet in person. But chemistry can't possibly be a factor over the net, unless its mental and emotional chemistry. Some people rub each other the wrong way in this department, but when they actually meet, the physical chemistry is overwhelming. Is this going to lead to a LTR? I doubt it, because attraction, as I said, depends on so many other levels than the physical...

I think you have worded the question in such a way that I am allowing you, by not being offended

Dio mentioned having a problem with poor hygiene, down there.

Unfortunately, It does take a lot of time to heal.
This is just my opinion but heres goes.

You have got to get yourself under control!
By not being on stable ground before getting involved with this guy, you only set yourself up for such a hard crash.
While still alone, use this time to heal and fix yourself first!! it is not that you aren't worthy, it is that you weren't really ready.

You must be happy with yourself before you can contribute to a relationship! otherwise you are just putting the entire load on the other person.

"They all seem to let me go.." why? maybe because..
sounds like a pattern that you keep following.
ask yourself,, what do these guys have in common? What were the differences?
how fast are you giving your heart over? how soon do you have intimate relations? and how sound are your decision making abilities?

Someone else can only add to your happiness.. they can not make you a happy person.
If the other person is happy, but most of what they hear from you is sorrow.. they have to fight to stay happy.

You have answered your own question,
You were not happy before you met him, you only had electronic communication with him and met him only once, you had doubts about his age (and I'm sure doubts about other aspects as well, if you take a deeper look) listen to what your mind is telling you.

This would be a great time to write in a journal! just so you will have it to read back thru , so you don't forget..

write in detail about differences and similarities of men from the past.. stay away from those traits in men and look for something different.
also write your feelings and actions with men! think of how you can fix yourself first.

Instead of being so down.. Use this time to be productive and learn from the past.

In closing I must add,
I do in a way agree with mbcasey! it was just worded badly.
When depressed, it often helps to look at others that really have it rough,, injury, cancer, accidents or worse yet they continue to fight to survive, many when there really is little hope.

watch people in worse conditions, maybe even talk to them. learn from them.

either way. you Seriously need to find the ways to be happy with yourself first!

how do u make it stop, i cant seem to. i am crying off and on, and i keep going over it again and again. i dont understand the why!!

he really hurt me, i dont know how u can do that to someone. not even call them to say it, make u feel like u are nothing to them. i am in so much pain, it has to stop

how does a person say they love u over and over and want to be with u, have ur children, then text u to not contact them anymore and say they cant be with u the arent ready to settle down! texting u this!!!??? it tears me to shreds

hi i am 18 and a virgin. i am looking for someone to take it. im not a shallow guy and age is not a factor as i like older women.

i am lonely and wish i had someone. age does not matter to me and neither does looks. if interested look at my profile and send me a message.

i have been using this site for a while now and i have gotten one flower and o messages. is there anyone out there for me. i am starting to doubt it but who knows. so take a look at my profile im not shallow and age does not matter to me. im just very lonely and bored and just because i like the color pink does not mean im gay.

Thanks so much. Unfortunately, she's not well. She has pneumonia & is partially sedated. They put the ventilator back on her. I'd like to see her, but I'm sure the less people carrying germs in & out & the less people bothering her when she should be resting, the better she'll be. I just pray she makes it through this. Her poor mother is devaitated. Her father hasn't left her side, which isn't exactly the best thing for her because she needs her rest & each time he leaves & comes back, he's bringing more germs in the room. Besides, he hadn't been there for her while she was growing up, but doesn't want to leave now. Yes, obviously he cares. But he's not really doing her all that much good, when you think about it.
